Ups:

J&J 14" Ceramic 1 Piece barrel
VL Force hopper
Draxxus 48/30 HPA tank.

Also after shooting less than a hopper today my air was brought down a whole 1000 psi, wtf?

***TheAznInvazn*** · May 17th, 07:17 PM

The VS1 is inefficient, and the tank is only 3000psi.

6/10

carcrazycorey · May 17th, 07:20 PM

meh, I didn't really expect a good rating. About how many shots is the tank worth? and if the air goes by PSI whats the point of the CI size?

***TheAznInvazn*** · May 17th, 09:16 PM

the more air it can hold, the more shots...
PSI is just how much air they can cram in.

The bigger the tank and PSI, the more shots.

saturnv7890 · May 17th, 10:08 PM

CI is cubic inches, the size of the tank

7/10. What can i say, i like the VS1 for what it is. Love the barrel, love the tank, indifferent about the hopper. Loose some points via the feedneck that need a tube... gotta get that fixed man.

yea I know, I might be getting a NIB Q-Lock for $15.

***TheAznInvazn*** · May 18th, 12:45 AM

does the q-lock come in VS threads...

carcrazycorey · May 18th, 03:04 AM

its Ion threaded right? It should work right?

***TheAznInvazn*** · May 18th, 01:28 PM

ion threads will not work on your VS threaded VS1

CCM makes a clamping feedneck spacificly for the VS series

carcrazycorey · May 18th, 04:13 PM

I thought you could, damn that sucks. Well theres a guy on PbN that has one NIB for $15 shipped so I thought it was a good deal. I just buy me a VS2 now...

***TheAznInvazn*** · May 18th, 04:20 PM

VS2's don't use ion threaded feednecks either, just to let you know.

carcrazycorey · May 18th, 09:16 PM

I know, im just going to buy a VS2 instead.

saturnv7890 · May 19th, 04:35 PM

great choice! I love my vs2

make sure, if you can, to get a fiber wrapped air tank. I find that there really arent any other necessary upgrades. I think the barrel is nice and accurate, but you could upgrade that if you want

carcrazycorey · May 19th, 06:48 PM

ill just put the stock crap back on my VS1, use it for a loaner, and take the barrel, hopper, and tank and put it on the VS2.

Lose the hopper and the feedneck, get a Revolution or something that has eyes and doesn't require that feedneck adapter. I used to have that particular hopper and I hated it. Made everything topheavy, made too much noise, always remained on so I had to cut it off if I wanted to sneak up...
Props on the air tank, at least you're not using CO2. I use a Tippmann 98 Custom and I only have a 3000 psi/ 45 ci tank and I can go a full game (full hopper plus 4 pods) without having to refill. That's weird you have such bad air efficiency, Tippmanns are air hogs...
5.5/10 for right now, get a new hopper and better feedneck to bring the hopper closer to your marker and it'll be 7/10. I say this because not only is your marker topheavy with your current set up, but the hopper extended so far up poses a problem in matches or fields were marker hits count (some fields don't count marker hits). If you have your hopper jutting several inches out further than it should, it becomes an easy target for someone to hit, especially while you're hiding or ducking behind something, or poking around a corner to take a few shots.

Carcrazycorey, please please do not listen to this dumbass. Everything he has said happens to be wrong. Go pick up that q-lock for $15, that's a good price and it will work.

VS series are ion-threaded. TheAznInvazn: You sir are a ***. Please don't mislead people with your horribly twisted and wrong information. GTFO mah internetz. <///3

BTW, that is a very nice VS1, you just need a feedneck and it'll be great!

Whoops, also, it's not the hopper that requires the plastic elbow, it's the VS1's feedneck. Heat it up and wrench it off when you get your new one.

You could just get a better valve, reg, and spring kit, and your VS1 would be about just as good as any VS2.

Agreed, what a waste of a first time post, too. I wonder if he became a member just to spout that little bit off and he'll never get back on. What a waste of server space his profile will become.

That was touching.

Seriously though I do plan on posting my marker here once I get it finished, if it makes you feel any better.
